Enforce Immigration or Lose Transportation Act conditions federal highway funding on state compliance with federal immigration enforcement policies.
The Enforce Immigration or Lose Transportation Act mandates that federal highway funding be withheld from states that do not comply with federal immigration enforcement policies. Non-compliant states include those that restrict information sharing with federal immigration authorities, issue driver's licenses without requiring proof of lawful presence, or fail to cooperate with federal immigration detainers. The withholding percentage starts at 5% for the first year of non-compliance and increases to 10% for subsequent years.
